Wow, those are stunning. How did you make the wheels? After I got them trued up on the wheel mill I chucked them on a drill press to cut down the fronts (narrower) and remove the letters and print from the front. Then I made a jig on the press with the center axle offset from the press. Using a sma...

What's up with you're Image's there not showing up !

Should be fixed now, Google likes to move address links around. It worked in the preview for me when I drafted the original post but something must've changed.

NICE! Looking great Whoda! Have you ever heard of paperwood? it's super thin veneer woods adhered to a paper backing. I'm using it on my hot rod build and it looks like wood but without all of the weight! Since you have some ounces to shave, it might help lighten your load.

What were you thinking for the wing?

Looking good, we are all iced over here in KC as well. Trying to use this week to paint. How are you doing on weight? Any plans to hollow out some of those larger pieces?

As an organization as a whole the Girl Scouts is a steaming cesspool of special interest propaganda, couldn't care less about it. That being stated fact, girls should get to have the fun of pinewood as well! My daughter's My Little Pony car was the overall champion at our pack race last year and she...

Early Build photos, Car is mostly hollow. Roof and windows are infilled with paperwood, axles and tie rods will be added with piano wire, found a dragster type engine with air cleaner that will go in the hole in the hood. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/v0zC01vfZY3IsZQhYAJZw9ossTBGLHEWRyeqOXwJs8v...

Inside the car.

Gearing up for our Local St. Patrick's Day Parade. Still need to get the hay bale seating inside the thing bit it should seat about 28 scouts!

http://i66.tinypic.com/zkia68.jpg Revised the plans a bit, added outlines for the portions of the car I would make hollow. Will cut all of the windows, the top, and bottom. Added a few more detail lines for body curves, pinstriping lines, etc. Going to try a toner transfer onto the block to give me...
